Movies & My Life

Went to the doctor week before last. Spent $110 to learn that I had a viral respiratory infection and to not get any prescriptions. Bah. I'll be happier when my COBRA information comes so I file a claim and get some of my money back. I took Sambucus (black elderberry) to get over it. Mom's doctor is into alternative medication and that's what she told Mom to take for her walking pneumoniae the week before I got sick. I think the elderberry helped Mom and I get well.

Now, I've got a sinus infection. I had a nosebleed (a long one) happen last week. I was in the bathtub at the time thank goodness since it was easier to clean up that way. I bled so much it turned my bathwater a rust color.

Last week (the 18th) was my birthday. Yay. Didn't do anything for it other than be sick. Boy, I'm tired of being sick.Another year older and no longer to realizing my dreams and unemployed. Joy. Yesterday, I filed for unemployment insurance. I need to complete my workforce application registration. I missed an event (learning about music therapy) that I wanted to attend today since I couldn't find parking. Damn it.

Tomorrow, I'm running Mom's errands for her. I'm taking her car to be inspected, oil changed, getting gas, and returning stuff to Petsmart for her. The food she got for her dogs disagrees with them. The vet wants them to eat CD food, which the dogs don't like but the other brands of dogfood make them sick (Gertie gets crystals in her urine and pees everywhere when does and I think Boo's stomach gets upset).

Watched Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull today. What a meh, half-assed movie. Even the music was kind of meh--it didn't come across as powerful or dramatic to me. I kind of wished they hadn't made it if this was the best they could do.( Indiana Skull movie spoilers: one major (?) one if you've not seen the movie )
